Question

Fill in the blank [11] with suitable article from the options given:

• A. the
• B. an
• C. a
• D. no article required

Answer 1

The correct option is A the

In the tenth sentence, 'office' has already been specified and introduced to our knowledge, hence in the eleventh sentence 'office' is a definite noun.

For example:

'I have a dress. The dress is blue in colour.'

In the same way, we will use 'the' for the definite noun 'office'.

Thus option A is the correct answer.

Options B, C and D are incorrect.

'The man who had the idea to start the office was George Everest.'
